We moved to Norway

 

 

 We moved to Norway! After many years, we managed to move to my dream country.

This story starts with a message from Lewis, asking me if I'm interested in a job in Oslo. Naturally I said yes. A few interviews later, I get an offer from the company. I was thrilled, I was smiling uncontrollably and jumping around the house. I quit my job the same day.

20 Days pass, my final working day was 26 of February and it was the day we were suppose to fly to Oslo, but Norway was hit hard by Corona and it has it's borders closed. The waiting game started...and it took 4 month until we were able to come to Norway.

Flight day finally arrived! I packed my PS5 and my Xbox One (the important stuff) and I was ready to GO! We would fly to Poland and from there to Norway. Midway to Oslo, we hear a message from the captain that we have some technical issues and the plane will return to Poland for repairs and refuel. Our 1 hour and 45 minutes flight turned into a 4 hours flight, but we made it to Oslo.

We search on Google maps for the name of the hotel (our first mistake), it seamed close, so we decided to walk (our second mistake as we had 4 large bags and one had shitty wheels so I had to drag it all the way). We arrive at our destination, we input the code at the door and it won't open. We gave it a few more tries, still nothing. We were at the wrong address. The company has a few buildings but uses different names for them.

We called an Uber and got to the correct place. 15 Minutes after we settled in, the fire alarm goes off. At 12 in the middle of the night the whole building was evacuated.

Even though it was a rough day, I was still happy, we managed to move to the country I felt most at home.

After the first day of work, first store I visited was Games Workshop. I got an Ork box, a metal pin and a Stormcast Eternal to paint for August competition.

On the second day we went to look for a place to rent. I first wanted to see a house on an island which is amazing, after work you feel like you go on holiday. As expected, we loved the place and the landlord accepted us as tenants. AWESOME!

Time to enjoy our new city.

A few days past, I go back to Games Workshop to receive the model of the month! Since I was not willing to wait, I also went to Outland and bought a painting set and Diana bought a leaf chonker.

Now the only thing left is to ship all our stuff over, which is a lot, but we will manage it in the end.
